YET they would come to school in Michael Jordan sneakers, wearing NFL jackets with the Oakland Raiders symbol on them

True that!  I substitute taught in Detroit a long time ago and the "poverty kids" had some great clothes.  They always had money for chips, pop, cigarettes, drugs, cable TV, video games, cars ... yet they were poor.
